Veigar vs Lux

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Veigar is a scaling burst mage with low early agency and relies on safe farming and E to control trades.
Avoid giving Lux free poke and pressure early to prevent losing stacks and health, as Lux has higher early lane pressure.

Trading pattern

Use E to trap Lux when she steps forward for minions and punish with burst if she is low.
Dodge Lux Q to avoid being rooted and punished by her combo; punish her cooldown if she misses.
Avoid trading when E is down or Lux has Lux W active on herself or minions.

Danger windows

Veigar is vulnerable when E is on cooldown and Lux can root and burst him.
Avoid extended trades if Lux's key abilities (Q and R) are available and your cage is down.
Be cautious if Lux pushes wave hard or positions aggressively without her Q on cooldown.

Early game

Focus on farming quietly near turret to safely stack Q without taking poke from Lux E.
Respect Lux Q root threat and avoid engaging unless E is ready to punish her overstep.
Do not push wave too far early to avoid being vulnerable without E's protection.

Power spikes

Veigar's major spikes are level 6 R burst and first completed mage item plus Q stacks.
Respect Lux's level 6 Lux R and first mage item as windows where she can punish mispositioning.
Veigar's scaling with stacks makes surviving early crucial to reach these spikes safely.

Win conditions

Survive early poke and pressure to safely farm Q stacks near turret.
Use E to catch Lux out of position and burst her before she can respond.
Reach level 6 and item spikes to turn trades decisively with R execution.

Tip: For Veigar vs Lux, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
